Grey Wool Coat

Description

Fall is coming and its getting colder. So I sewed my first coat.

I took the pattern from a coat I bought a few years ago. Therefore I’ve pinned sandwich paper on the coat and have drawn along the seams. I know that others prefer planes that painters use for covering the floor. But I think the result is alright.

Sewing the coat wasn’t as complicated as i thought. Only the lining was a little bit fiddly.

Thank you all for your wonderful and highly motivating comments. Now the buttons have arrived. i think i will finish this project if i can find the courage to do so. never made button holes before. scary thing!
